Still no goddamn closing date, so I guess I’ll have to cancel that trip to Europe. Just as well with the big travel alert or whatever it is, I guess. I heard Mike Chertoff yesterday saying Americans shouldn’t go traipsing around Europe with American flag patches on their stuff. I think that ship sailed about seven years ago, Mike. I haven’t actually been to Europe since ’04 or something (that reminds me, I really need to cash in my Euros and Pounds), but my ‘Canada’ clothes are still ready to travel if need be. As long as I don’t have to fly to get there. Flying sucks.
Unless you have your own broom, of course. Then it might be fun – except for picking the bugs out of your teeth. Speaking of flying around on brooms, just in case you missed it, here’s Christine O’Donnell’s new campaign ad.
We went ‘Canadian’ in Greece in ’76. The locals didn’t care much since their dictatorship was recently gone. We sat around glomming on to discarded magazines and International Herald Tribunes following the progress of the presidential campaign of Jerry Brown.
My last time in Europe I watched the Redskins win the Super Bowl in Venice followed by Bill and Hill’ry on 60 Minutes thinking Jerry’s chances looked good.
Things seem to keep coming around. I hope this means I’ll be back in Europe soon.
I wish to make clear that even though Ms. O’Donnell looks me straight in the eye and says “I am you” she is not. Clearly she is just trying to use her witchcraft to turn me into a blithering idiot. For that task I need neither Ms. O’Donnell nor her witchcraft. I am perfectly able to turn myself into a most blithering idiot.
Matisse, Picasso and Duchamp are now officially added to the midterm. As if there wasn’t enough shit to know already. And physics class, WTF! It’s not like the instructor is incompetent, he’s just really, really bad– a product of the UW. And I have no complaints for my Eng. class.
